The UN ambassador isn’t particularly important, but I wonder if this “bipartisan” William Barr is intended to be a blood sacrifice? Seriously, after Jeff “the weakling” Sessions, you would hope that President Trump would get the message, to nominate a real hard ass who would purge the Justice Department and then start issuing indictments like crazy against all the big name Democrats who have flouted the law with total impunity.
He could run federal grand juries around the clock for years to put dozens of scoundrels in prison. But first he must be confirmed as Attorney General. Barr is just too establishment to rock the boat by doing thing like indicting Democrats for breaking the law.
So what I figure is that President Trump would put up this Barr guy during the lame duck session, calculating that the Democrats the RINOs and the turd ball Jeff Flake would vote against him. This would tick off the incoming senate so that the next Republican senate would be rock solid in favor of the hard ass real nominee.
Some interesting background on Barr at post 47, seems like he might be conservative.
